Hay-Ku of the Day (The Self-Experiencing Presence of Awareness)

“All Experience
Appears in, is Known by and
Made of Awareness.”

***

All Experience
Is an apparent state of
Awareness Itself.

All Experience
Is a reflective state of
Awareness Itself.

All Experience
Is a projected state of
Awareness Itself.

All Experience
Is a imagined state of
Awareness Itself.

***

All Experience
Is a particle state of
Quantum Awareness.

All Experience
Is a relative state of
Quantum Awareness.

All Experience
Is a contracted state of
Quantum Awareness 

***

Experience is
A Self-Witnessed State of the
Awareness I Am.

Experience is
A Self-Conceived State of the
Awareness I Am.

Experience is
A Self-Expressed State of the
Awareness I Am.

Re: “All experience appears in Awareness, is known by Awareness and is made of Awareness.” — Rupert Spira

All Experience 
Is a time-bound state of the
Awareness I Am.

All Experience 
Is a partial state of the
Awareness I Am.

All Experience 
Is a vibrant state of the
Awareness I Am.

All Experience 
Is a perceived state of the
Awareness I Am.

Re: “Every thought is a particular vibration of Awareness, appearing in Awareness, known by Awareness and made of Awareness.” — Rupert Spira

A Form Awareness
Imagines being cannot
Divide Awareness.

A State Awareness
Imagines never really
Divides Awareness.

A Form Awareness
Imagines never truly
Bifurcates Being. 

A State Awareness
Imagines being does not
Bifurcate Presence.

***

Objective states that
Awareness assumes never
Divide Awareness.

Relative forms that
Awareness assumes never
Bifurcate Presence.

Re:  “No experience, no form Awareness assumes, ever actually divided the field of Awareness into separate objects and selves.” — Rupert Spira

Nothing is other
Than the Field of Awareness
In which it abides.

Nothing is other
Than the Field of Awareness
Of which it is made.

***

Nothing is other
Than the Still State Awareness
In which it appears.

Nothing is other
Than the Wave State Awareness
By which it is Known.

Re:  “When the thought appears, no new substance comes into existence. The thought is a temporary modulation of the eternally existing presence of Awareness. It is a temporary modulation of the ever-present substance of Awareness, and as such gives Awareness a temporary name or form. Or we could say Awareness Itself assumes a name or form as it takes the shape of the thought Itself.” — Rupert Spira


[Rich Note: Cross-correlative, conceptual, haiku paraphrases of some rather simple, experimentally obvious (and in that way akin to DE Harding’s headless exercises), yet utterly profound, experientially confirmable observations by Rupert Spira, from a meditative work entitled: “Transparent Body, Luminous World, The Yoga of Perception and Sensation.”]

Hay-Ku of the Day (A Blessed Christmas Day to All)

The “Christ Child” is the
“Living Light of Awareness”
“Shining in Our Hearts.”

Friday, December 22, 2017

Hay-Ku of the Day (Absolute Relatives)

Equate Timeless with
Eternal and Absolute
Becomes Relative.

Only the Father’s
Absolute Potential to
Be Is Eternal.

***

A Quantum Field of
Energy may Be Timeless
But Not Eternal.

A Unified Field
Can Encompass All Time yet
Not Be Eternal.

***

Still Awareness can 
Be Eternal while Vibrant
Awareness cannot.

“Presence” implies an
Awareness thereof and
Some Self-Reflection.

***

Pure Awareness of
Being may be Timeless but
Still Begins and Ends.

THAT which “happens” All
At One Time, in No Time, Still
Begins and must End.

***

Thus Holy Instant
Awareness knows Sensation
Consciousness is Born.

I Am Awareness
Embodied as a Sense of
Radiant Presence.

[Rich Note: In terms of Pure Metaphysical Logic and Reason, only the Absolute (as an Infinite Potential to Be) has “No Beginning or End”; and, as such, Any an All Energetic Actualization, All at One Time or in No Time, of said Infinite Potential, as a Manifest Complement, must have an Alpha and Omega.

Ergo,

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.” John 1:1-2 KJV

“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8 KJV

Are two Scriptural verses that both offer sound logical underpinnings with respect to the fundamental Nature of God the Father, as an Absolute Potential to Be; Self-Expressed, as the Living Word or Child of God, Manifest in, as and through Numberless (though not Infinite) Energetic Patterns, Dimensions and/or States of Cosmic Energy or Consciousness, with an Alpha-Omega, Everlasting, but not Eternal, Existence.]

Hay-Ku of the Day (Knowing I Don’t Know)

To know that I don’t
Know anything, I still have
To know that I am.

The one thing truly
Knowable is the fact of
One’s own existence.

To Know I Am and
Just Be That is the Headstone
The Builders Reject.

But the “Real Joke” Is:

Knowing I don’t know
Anything is still knowing
Something I don’t know.

Part” is given by “how it
Fits into the Whole.”)

Known” is “knowing by virtue”
Of “being what’s known.”

“Knowing by Virtue
Of Being what is Known” is

With Christmas so near, 
It’s that Time of Year;

Again Born in Mind,

The Joy of His Sharing, 
His Wondrous Caring. 

The Birth of a Son
In Whom we are One; 
God’s Gift from Above, 
His Life and His Love.

Hay-Ku of the Day [“Out of My Mind and Back to My Senses” (OOMM) Extrapolations]

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Consciously Aware.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Present and Aware.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Awareness Itself.”

***

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Conscious as I Am.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Present as I Am.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Aware as I Am.”

***

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Self-Radiant Light.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Living Light and Love.”

Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
One with the Father.”

[Rich Note 1: Wanted to take this opportunity to tell family, friends and others who may be interested that  “Out of My Mind and Back to My Senses” (OOMM), a book I fondly refer to as a “40 Year State of the Head Message,” was recently republished by Redemption Press; for, I would most humbly suggest, “such a time as this.”

I am particularly happy to make the digital version available to the general public for the first time, as it serves to make purchase price less of an obstacle to sharing OOMM in the spirit of the following 7-7-7, haiku-like inscription included with signed copies: 

“May the ‘Words’ on these pages 
Serve to ‘Reflect and Reveal’ 
The ‘Truth Written’ in your Heart.”

Worth noting, as well, is the unexpected bonus of both the new Amazon “Look in the Book” feature, as well the “Downloadable Kindle Sample,” including OOMM’s Forward, Introduction, all of Chapter 1, “In the Beginning Was the Word,” through the first 8 pages of Chapter 2, “Through a Glass Darkly, But Then Face To Face”; which effectively translates into a “59 Page, complementary mini-book” that includes seminal abstracts, metaphors and more than 165, cross-correlating, triangulating, haiku-like pointers to the One Changeless, Timeless Truth experienced, Here, during 1966, 1970 and 1978 Epiphanies — and, therefore, more than enough sharing to “Seed the Heart,” without having to purchase the book.😊

For those whose interest might be piqued, here is a link to both the Amazon Author’s Page (which includes a “quick and dirty briefing” on how best to approach reading OOMM) and the Amazon purchase page:

Still and Always, 
Rich Hay 

[Rich Note 2: Although there was some thought originally given to titling OOMM with the following haiku, “Out of My Mind and Back to My Senses” seemed to be a more appropriate title:

Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense of Being 
Consciously Aware.

However, in playing with and so extrapolating said the underlying theme of said haiku even more, something that pretty much happens all the time, the additional 8 above and 12 below, “popped into being”:

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Father’s Light and Love.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Father’s Only Child.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Mother’s Living Light.”

Back to My Sense” of “Being
“At the Heart of All.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
One with Existence.”

***

Back to My Sense” of “Being
What Is As It Is.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
What I Am in Truth.”

The Child Heart I Am.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Consciously Alive.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Conscious Radiance.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
Self-Witnessing Light.”

“Out of My Mind and
Back to My Sense” of “Being
The Seeing I Am.”

“For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;”. Ephesians 2:14 KJV

Hay-Ku of the Day (Three in One Am I)

What Is “Light” to the
Eye is “Silence” to the Ear
And “Love” to the Heart.

What Is “Light” to the
Eye is “Life” to the Body
And “Love” to the Heart.

I Am Embodies 
The Absolute Still Point Eye
Of God the Father.

I Am Embodies 
The Absolute Still Point Peace
At the Heart of All.

I Am Embodies 
The Absolute Awareness 
Underlying All.

[Rich Note: Inspired by the following three Robert Sarrello I AM Mantras (which Robert instructs should “...be inwardly, bodily-gesturally, said from the place of the central point of the heart”) :

“I Am is a body of Light, 
I Am a body of Light.

“I Am is a body of Silence,
I Am a body of Silence.

I Am is a body of Love
I Am a Body of Love.”]

Hay-Ku of the Day (Veterans Day Tribute to TSGT Clyde D, Alloway)

To those called to fight
In Vietnam, "There are no good
Wars, only good men!"

[Rich Note: Here’s a link to the on-line “Virtual Wall Vietnam Memorial" page dedicated to TSGT Clyde D. Alloway, a long ago friend and fallen comrade in arms, who didn't make it “back to the world": 


And while we’re at it, here is a link to my own particular “mother of all war stories,” about the night ten aircrew members bailed out of a stricken AC-119K Stinger gunship in June 6th of 1970 and only nine made it back out of DaNang Harbor and the South China Sea — a mission, during which we logged one takeoff, no landings and got two trucks:
